Advanced Valve Technology: Design, Selection, Installation, Applications and Pumps: Design, Operation And Maintenance

Mechanical, Maintenance & Reliability · 5 Days · Public · Al-Khobraa certified · From USD 3,900

Overview

In today's ever-changing environment, the specifier and valve buyer will spend 67% to 80% of their time looking up information. This results in your time being non-productive. This workshop will show you how to circumvent this problem. The industry needs to select the best Valve with the quality it requires in a timely and economical manner. This workshop presents a practical approach to valve selection for the function, Servicing, sizing, installation, repair, overhaul, upgrading, and modifications of these components.

Learning Objectives

• This workshop has been structured to show how more than 32 basic types of Valves operate and how they are configured for their many applications. With over 400 classifications for valves produced by more than two thousand manufacturing companies, which Valve do you select? It will be shown how valves should be specified and selected. This workshop will present many accessories such as actuators and how they are made available and selected. Other amenities such as proportional controllers, solenoids, positioners and indicators will also be presented.
• In light of the many liability cases held throughout the world, selecting the proper valve can have major consequences for a com pany's safety, economy and viability. With this in mind, this workshop is designed to give both the new and experienced user some insight to problems that valve designers and manufacturing facilities encounter in the real world. Guidelines and numerous "rule of thumb" suggestions will be given to help you make sound choices that limit downtime.
